Sense of political, economic, and social entitlement enables one to invade the most personal, sensitive, and protected space even in absence of consent resulting in violation of personal respect

Feels like everything is burnt down – from inner peace to the social relationship – from daily life to the goal of life – the anger and hatred burns within – the life goes on for everyone around

One seeks the console of faith and religion – the reverence of it – the magnanimous reach of it – one will come down to help punish all the wrong doings – so we patiently believe in our faith

Life goes upside down – everything feels like disgusting – life seems to be stopped – it takes a great deal of time, courage, and support from within and from family and friends to get back on the feet – and life goes on and it is never the same

Did anyone come down to help?  Time helps to heal all the pain – but isn’t it a part of picking up the fragments and moving on. Even the nearer and dearer ones ask you to keep quiet and move on.  The so-called representatives of the elevated social, economic, and political strata suddenly change stance – from the protector of the common people they become protector of their own agenda
